Workshop: ‘Create a creature’

Rethink toy!

The Event

Create a Creature invites kids and adults to unlock the creative powers of your hands. By mixing soft toy animals, you will give life to new and unique species. Creatures made by you in the mix of the well known.

Create a Creature is more than a toy hack. At our workshop you create your own totem-of-creation incarnated in the body of a soft toy creature.

About CirkuLær

CirkuLær is an association which encourages a circular mindset through hands on workshops and learning concepts. Their mission is to support an educative culture for sustainability and recycling, which helps you to develop a greener mindset through workshops on and including waste. You CAN do something for a better environment - and we'll start where you are.

Why CirkuLær: a circular economy is a regenerative system in which resource input and waste, emission, and energy leakage are minimized by slowing, closing, and narrowing energy and material loops. This can be achieved through long-lasting design, maintenance, repair, reuse, remanufacturing, refurbishing, recycling, and upcycling. This is in contrast to a linear economy which is a 'take, make, dispose' model of production.
